$659,000 Beds: 5 • Baths: 2 full • Sq. Feet: 4432 • MLS ID: MDFR2070470 • Subdivision:School Dist: FREDERICK COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS
With a $60,000 price adjustment and newly finished upper-level space, this extensively restored 1820s Federal-style home presents a rare opportunity to own one of Burkittsville’s most distinctive historic residences. Prominently positioned on the village square, the home blends preserved architectural character with significant modern updates completed over the past two years. Improvements include two-zone HVAC systems, a 50-year architectural roof, updated electrical, refinished wide-plank floors, reglazed windows with storm inserts, fresh interior paint, new lighting, a remodeled main-level full bath, and a new water heater. Inside, timeless details define the space—soaring 10-foot ceilings, vintage pocket doors, intricate moldings, built-ins, and decorative stone fireplaces that create striking focal points throughout. The kitchen has been thoughtfully redesigned with granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, premium appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a generous pantry, seamlessly blending historic charm with everyday function. With five bedrooms and two full baths, the layout offers flexibility and comfort. The rear upstairs room has been recently finished, adding valuable living space. The adjacent laundry area provides adaptable space with strong potential for future customization, including the opportunity to create a private ensuite bath. Outdoor spaces complement the home’s character. A brick patio and flagstone walkway extend the living area outdoors, framed by a privacy fence and landscaped yard. The detached stone summer kitchen, complete with exposed beams and a large working fireplace, offers exceptional versatility as a studio, workshop, or creative retreat. A detached three-bay garage with new doors and electric service provides functionality rarely found in properties of this era. Once serving as both a stagecoach inn and Civil War hospital, the home carries a rich local legacy while offering the comfort expected today. Located just minutes from Middletown, Brunswick, Frederick, national parks, and nearby wineries, it delivers the perfect balance of small-town charm and modern convenience. Opportunities like this are uncommon—schedule your private showing and experience the craftsmanship, space, and setting for yourself. Room measurements are estimated.
